Oliver has been moving more and more lately. He loves zooming around in his walker, so you'd better watch your toes, or he'll run them right over. Believe me, it's a little painful!
He's also starting to climb things. We were at the church and I was practicing the organ while he played on the floor. I turned around to find he had climbed the step and was turned around and about to come back down!
Going up...
Ta-da! Coming back down...
Here are a couple more of him playing while I was practicing.
Little O also likes to stand a little lately. He looks so big when he does it, I just can't believe it! He can't stand by himself, or pull himself up, but if we help him stand up, then he can balance with some help.
At his check-up a couple weeks ago, the doctor said he could start using a sippy with some juice in it, so Mike and I went on the "great sippy hunt." It took us a little while, but we found one that he LOVES, so it was worth all the looking! :)
First time having juice... he really liked it.
Drinking all by himself, the little smarty.
The new sippy!
It now pretty much has to go everywhere with us.
On Monday, we decided to head to the park for Family Home Evening. Oliver tried the baby swing for the first time a couple weeks ago, and we wanted to show Dad how he liked it.
Oliver and Dad.
He doesn't mind the astroturf as much as he does real grass...
A squirrel was running around by us. We were hoping Oliver would notice it, but he didn't really see it.
First time down the slide!
Dad had to try out whatever you call this... We think it must be the new alternative to the merry-go-round. Oliver liked it, and Mike said it hurt his arm. It's hard to see, but he's not on the ground, he's spinning a couple feet off the ground.
Oliver and Mom.
He thinks he's so cool in the swing!
He really loved it, so we'll have to go back to this little park. It's the only one I've found so far with a baby swing.
We're missing all of you and hope you're enjoying your Springtime! :)
